Recipes
What do you choose first when planning for that weekend BBQ – the food or the wine? For us it is always the wine!! In this section, we have tried to put a few ideas together, that make the decision process a little easier for you. We have selected 4 recipes and 4 wines to match with those recipes. For the recipes we would like to acknowledge, Peter Howard from Peter Howard’s BBQ Collection. For the wines we have worked with the McWilliam’s Wines portfolio to pair with the recipes. We hope you enjoy our selections.

Asian Flavoured Sea Scallops
Check each scallop to see it is clean and grit free – lift each scallop and give the shell a film of oil and return the scallop. Repeat for all the scallops and refrigerate until ready to cook. Mix the remaining ingredients and spoon a little over each scallop on the shell.
Lift onto medium hot grill - cook a few at a time as they cook quickly. Turn the scallops carefully if you can on the grill otherwise lift from grill and turn over. Spoon over a little more sauce - cook further and serve when all are done to your liking.

Prawn Kebabs, Pineapple Coriander Salsa
Toss the prawns with the juice, oil and curry paste – let sit for 15 minutes. Thread the prawns onto the skewers so you have four on each one. This is best done by curling the prawns in their natural form and then pushing the skewer through so as to get 4 horseshow shapes in a row.
Spray with oil and cook on medium hot plate for 1 minute; spray with oil and turn again and cook through – baste with the pineapple marinade at least once.

Proscuitto Sage Lamb Cutlets, Pea and Tomato Linguine
Place a sage leaf on top of each cutlet and an appropriate piece of Parmesan cheese (so it covers the leaf and the meat); wrap in a slice of Proscuitto.
Cook the lamb chops on a medium hot plate until the cheese is starting to seep through the crisped Proscuitto; remove and keep warm.
